Gaude Maria virgo cunctas haereses sola interemisti, quae Gabrielis archangeli dictis credidisti; Dum virgo Deum et hominem genuisti et post partum virgo inviolate permansisti. Gabrielum archangelum te esse affatum: Uterum tuum de Spiritu Sancto credimus impregnatum. Erubescat Judaeus infelix, qui dicit Christum de Joseph semine esse natum. Dum virgo Deum et hominem genuisti et post partum virgo inviolate permansisti.

Rejoice, virgin Mary, you alone ended all heresies, you who believed in the words of the archangel Gabriel; While a virgin, you bore God and man, and after the birth you remained a virgin inviolate. We believe the archangel Gabriel said to you that your womb would be impregnated by the Holy Spirit. Let the wretched Jew blush to say that Christ was born of Joseph's seed. While a virgin, you bore God and man, and after the birth you remained a virgin inviolate.
